Objects "deleted" in OSM are not deleted in the database.
And like "disused=yes", it is a mistake to believe that all data
consumers will check if a tag "demolished" is attached to a building
or any feature that can be demolished. For "disused", the trend is to
move it as a prefix in the previous tag.
I will move this page as a proposal. If someone wants, we could start
a "vote" just to get a feedback.
